After taking masters in Aquaculture in 2011 and entered into the ARS stream 2016. I am working in CIBA since 2017 on Brackishwater Aquaculture's different livelihood models for coastal fisherfolk communities. I currently work as Scientist & Officer-In-Charge at Navsari Gujarat Research Centre (NGRC) Navsari, under the Finfish Culture Division of CIBA. Presently I am conducting research on nursery culture, cage culture, Integrated Multitrophic Cage culture, Brackishwater Integrated Fish Farming system in the pond of Brackishwater different Candidate species (Seabass, Pearl spot, Tiger Shrimp, Red Snapper, Scat, Mullet) in ponds and creeks as an alternative income generation for coastal communities of Maharashtra and Gujarat. Since 2017, I have contributed to the revenue generation and employment to more than 500 coastal farmers of Maharashtra and Gujarat. I have interests in breeding and larval rearing of grey mullet and the development of brackishwater aquaculture livelihood models for coastal fisher folks.
